easier for her to finally walk away. She said a whole lot more....
"I have never cheated on my husband. Not with Don Jazzy, Dr Sid, 2face
Idibia or anybody. I have never cheated on my husband, and Tunji knows
this. He knows that in his heart. (She breaks down in tears)
President Teodoro Obiang Nguema has been re-elected with 93.7 percent
of the vote. While campaigning, he described himself as having
“dedicated his life to the country,” but acknowledged “many” were tired
of him.
Obiang – heading a coalition of 10 parties that includes the ruling
Democratic Party of Equatorial Guinea – said: “We are a benchmark in
democratic terms.”
The results announced by the National Election Commission showed the
73-year-old’s two closest rivals – Bonaventura Monsuy Asumu and Avelino
Mocache Mehengap – trailing with 1.5 percent each in Sunday’s vote.
The Democratic Opposition Front (FOD) coalition of dissident groups boycotted the vote.
Turnout in the oil-rich west African country was also 93.7 percent.
Commission chief Clemente Engonga admitted to anomalies in some of the
results, with the number of votes cast in some areas exceeding the
number of registered voters.
The results are subject to confirmation on May 2 by the constitutional court.
Seven candidates ran for the top job but Obiang was not seriously expected to be challenged.
He is Africa’s longest-serving leader, after ousting his uncle Francisco
Macias Nguema in 1979 and having him shot by firing squad.
Complaints of fraud
“These were the worst elections ever organised in this country,”
rival Asumu said, claiming that the vote had been marked by widespread
fraud. Running for the fourth time, he said he had visited polling
stations without ballot slips on polling day.
Another unsuccessful candidate, Gabriel Nse Obiang Obono, told AFP on
Tuesday that he and 200 of his supporters had been barred from leaving
his residence in the capital Malabo since the previous Friday.
Obiang’s regime has frequently come under fire from human rights
groups for suppressing dissident voices and the media, as well as for
widespread corruption.
With territory divided between the African mainland and islands in the
Gulf of Guinea, Equatorial Guinea boasts the highest GDP per capita in
Africa thanks to its extensive oil and gas reserves – with oil revenues
accounting for over 70 percent of national income. But the country ranks
144 out of 187 states listed on the United Nations’ 2014 Human
Development Index.
The Cameroon music producers are fed up with the so many irregularities
in the music industry as concern their sector of work. They are no longer
finding it funny anymore.
Many artists need the services of producers in one way or
the other either by making beats, mastering an entire song or just recording
the artists. However, as it has been the case for a very long while now, many
artists walk into recording studios and do theirwork and abuse that of the producers by
either not funding their right bills or paying far too little that demanded of
them. The producers think that it’s time for this uncalled for attitude to
cease.
Artists walk into recording studios majestically, get into
the recording booth and rant about how they got a million dollar crib and cars
yet cannot pay for their own art. Is this not a call for concern? When will
this end if it is tolerated? Or is the music industry just for the artists or
the producer too.
One of the top music producers and beat maker of Cameroon by the name Slim Beatz
sent out this press release calling for all producers to meet and discuss what
is at stake under the slogan “LE BEAT N’EST PAS NJOH,U NAKAM U PAYAM”
translated as THERE IS NO FREE BEAT,U MAKE THE BEAT U PAY FOR IT. The press
release said and I quote
“Some people say respect is earned but in the Cameroonian
music industry today you have to force it on the faces and minds of those who
continually disrespect the aspect of Music production and even the music
producers.For people to respect what we do,we need to be professionals in every
aspect of it.If you know you are a beat maker,or Music producer then make it a
must to be in Douala on Sunday the 8th of April for an official meeting.
Venue : Douala Ndokoti Bonga Juice Bar 4pm Prompt
#LEBEAT N'ESTPASNJOH.
God bless y'all.”
Musicians please start paying for your production. Lets keep the right platform.
English Premier League side Crystal Palace has entered into
partnership with the Cameroon FA to give a helping hand in development
of the beautiful game in many a way.
Crystal Palace chief executive Phillip Alexander told the media on
Wednesday that the club is looking at helping the federation improve in
the marketing and communication departments as well as performance of
coaches and staff.
Fecafoot president Tombi A Roko Sidiki who vowed to improve the state
of football in Cameroon last September when he took over a Fifa
Normalization Committee emphasized, “We hope that after 48 months in
office, we have completed the 11 points of our plan of action.”
On this high profile list is the development of infrastructure across
all regions especially the ones that will not benefit directly when
Cameroon hosts Afcon 2019.
Alexander mentioned that the popularity of the English Premier League
in Cameroon would perhaps instigate a move for Cameroonian football
players to Crystal Palace as well as a establish a fan base in the
Central African nation.
“We can be a good partner as a small and growing club. If we play our
part we can win the hearts and minds of so many Cameroonians who follow
the Premier League and maybe get a player to Crystal Palace.”
“Crystal Palace has values. We want to instill the same values in our players and our national teams,” added Alexander.
Crystal Palace is also looking into helping the senior national team
to register positive results at Afcon and in the Fifa World Cup
qualifiers.
Palace will face Manchester United in the FA Cup final on May 21 at
Wembley for a chance at their first ever FA Cup title. The Reds have won
it 12 times with the last time being 2004 under Sir Alex Ferguson.
President Paul Biya of Cameroon Thursday paid a glowing tribute to
the late Congolese musician, Jules Shungu Wembadio Pene Kikumba, better
known as Papa Wemba, describing the late musician as “one of the
greatest ambassadors of African music.
”In a condolence message to his DR Congolese counterpart, Joseph
Kabila, President Biya expressed his profound grief upon hearing news of
Wemba’s sudden death after collapsing in the middle of a concert in
Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire on Sunday.
A talented, world renowned artiste Papa Wemba, was in Cote d’Ivoire
to take part in the Festival of Urban Music Anoumabo (FEMUA).
Addressing his heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family of the
music maestro and to the distraught Congolese people, the Cameroonian
leader rued the departure of the musician as a huge loss to African
culture especially that of DR Congo.

A family believed to be Kuwaiti installed a secret camera in their
kitchen after becoming suspicious of their maid's activities in their
home. And what they discovered was shocking.
The maid was caught pouring her urine into her boss's juice after he requested a drink.
The camera captured two women going about their daily chores while one of them prepared a drink.
She is seen stirring it and then heading away before the second maid walks over to the juice.
Before she gets there however she quickly pulls a beaker of what purportedly contains her own urine from her trousers.
She is then clearly seen topping up the drink with the liquid.
The video concludes with the woman returning to carry on with her job.
She can be seen preparing food in the background.
The man involved who has chosen to keep his identity secret has warned
other families to be careful about who they employ and keep an eye on
the activities of domestic staff.
He was accused of embezzling 32 Billion FCFA belonging to the defunct
national carrier, Cameroon Airlines, Camair, when he was General
Manager.
The Yaounde-based Special Criminal Court, SCC, on Monday, April 25,
2016, sentenced Yves Michel Fotso to life imprisonment for embezzling
32.4 Billion FCFA during his tenure as General Manager of the defunct
national carrier, Cameroon Airlines, Camair. The ruling was for the
second of two matters for which Fotso is standing trial at the SCC.
Fotso was also fined 19 Billion FCFA for the financial losses caused
Camair as a result of the embezzlement. Also, money in about 15 frozen
Fotso bank accounts was confiscated.
The ruling, just like recent court sittings, took place in the
absence of Yves Michel Fotso and all his five counsel. The lawyers wrote
to the court last February to announce their withdrawal from the trial,
alleging unfair hearing. Their decision came after Fotso wrote to the
SCC to announce that he will no longer appear in court because the trial
was being conducted in a biased manner.
The judgement was delivered by a trial team headed by Mrs. Justice
Virginie Eloundou, assisted by Mrs. Justice Siewe Yvette and Mrs.
Justice Hayatou Zakiatou. The Advocates General were Mr. Justice Tagim
and Mr. Justice Omam Fils. Earlier, after declaring Yves Michel Fotso
guilty of embezzlement, Advocate General Omam Fils asked for the maximum
jail term for the accused and the confiscation of his seized property
and frozen bank accounts.
Counsel for the State, Barrister Sama Francis Asanga, supported the
position of Mr. Justice Omam Fils, but also requested commensurate
losses for his client caused by the embezzlement. Barrister Ngongo
Ottou, lawyer for Camair Liquidation, asked for losses equivalent to 6
per cent annual interest on the embezzled amount of 34.4 Billion from
2010 to 2016. He also demanded 500 Million FCFA as cost for moral losses
caused the Camair Liquidation Committee.
Prior to Monday’s sentence, Yves Michel Fotso was already serving a
25-year jail term for alongside others, embezzling about 21 Billion FCFA
meant for the purchase of a presidential aircraft, the Bbjet 2. They
were sentenced on September 12, 2012 by the Mfoundi High Court in
Yaounde.

The two-year toddler found with his father in the pool of a
Montreal hotel Wednesday died Friday night in turn , confirmed the coroner's
office Saturday.
William Tchouamou Ganjui, an American tourist 36 years from
Cameroon, came to spend a few days in Montreal with her children to visit
relatives. But his trip to Quebec took a tragic turn when he was in the pool at
Residence Inn Marriott in west of downtown, with her two year old son and his
five year old daughter.
Around 18:20, the hotel's residents found the lifeless body
of Mr. Tchouamou and son at the pool bottom. A good Samaritan then jumped into
the pool to try to save the life of the little boy a few minutes before the
arrival of rescuers. The death of the father was found on the premises.
The investigation was entrusted to the Office of the coroner
who will attempt to shed light on the circumstances of the accident which is
not criminal according to the Police Department of the City of Montreal (SPVM).
It is possible that Mr. Tchouamou has suffered a malaise.
On Facebook, friends of the family mourned the death of the
Boston-engineer and son. "Little angel, it's your turn to leave. It's hard
to accept, realize that you really are with your father. Go in peace little
bird! "Christel wrote Muriel Sedo.
"I have no words, I am in the ineffable, my heart
bleeds for this morning and say that I have listened to the last two days,
until yesterday at 23h time here, you made us live your journey through the
photos and the famous hotel and you have passed away. I am bewildered, stunned,
not knowing even where to turn, "wrote Thursday the sister of the victim
Christelle Ganjui.
On the fundraising website GoFundMe, more than $ 10,000 had
already been raised in less than 24 hours Saturday morning to help the family
of Mr. Tchouamou.
Hotel officials Marriott Residence Inn Marriott would not
issue any comments.
In addition, funds raised now amount to about $ 15,000
